At VinaCapital, we incorporate ESG issues into investment analysis and decision-making processes. Our investment tool has incorporated ESG criteria to evaluate and monitor those risks as part of our due diligence process. Our portfolio managers are also active in analysing the potential effects of ESG issues when making investment decisions. This approach is also a key to develop our understanding of the portfolio company.

We are active owners and incorporate ESG issues into our ownership policies and practices. With our voting rights and our influence as an investor, we often play an important role in improving the governance of the companies in which we invest. We engage directly with companies on ESG issues and encourage good governance and sustainable corporate practices.

We seek appropriate disclosure about ESG issues from the entities in which we invest. We encourage transparency in our discussions around ESG performance with portfolio companies and support the adoption of/adherence to relevant norms, standards, codes of conduct or international initiatives.

VinaCapital has policies and procedures in place to identify and manage potential conflicts of interest that may arise in the course of providing services to its Funds and managed accounts.

VinaCapital has identified specific potential conflicts of interest which may arise in relation to its activities. The general nature and/or source of these conflicts will be disclosed to clients before undertaking business in sufficient detail to enable the client to make an informed decision about the service in the context in which the conflict has arisen. For each potential situation, VinaCapital has analysed whether or not the risk is actual or potential for one or more of its clients.

It is not always possible to prevent actual conflicts of interest from arising. In that case VinaCapital will try to manage the conflicts of interests by:

(i) disclosure to the client;

(ii) establishing an information barrier (Chinese wall); or

(iii) declining to provide the service.
